I need to drain some oil as it was over filled by my not to clever assistant, I think i have to unscrew a bolt underneath the engine, is this right and can some one tell me where it is exactly. Thanks

Beware you don't lose all the oil !! Could be tricky putting the sump plug back in once the oil is gushing. Just in case you mess it up, keep a video camera running and make a few quid by sending it in to that fat bird on the Telly
